On decision making...

I find it difficult, when inundated with a host of equally appealing options, to make a decision. It can, as a friend pointed out, be paralyzing.

Bangkok.
Kansas City.
London.
Burlington, VT.
Portland, OR.

To the untrained eye, there is probably a clear front runner in the list above. Really, how could someplace as dusty and agricultural* as Kansas City trump a city as sexy and cosmopolitan as London Towne? Really...common sense, right?

The lists...PROS vs CONS...they are strewn through my flat on back of envelopes and receipts. They litter my purse. They occupy my thinking on public transport, drifting off to sleep, and in the moments of peace before logging onto my computer to endure another 12-hour day of virtual hoop-jumping. Why is this so difficult?

Ahhhh, decisions.
Call it on three...heads or tails...


*Kansas City is neither dusty nor agricultural, but in fact a city peppered a wide array of music, art, sporting events, culture--all whilst enjoying the convenience of modern day plumbing, dentistry, and paved streets.
